Sec. 98-232. - Zoning map.

(a)

Adoption. The boundaries of the zoning districts set out in this article are delineated upon the zoning map of the town. Such map is adopted as a part of this article as fully as if the map were set forth in this section in detail.

(b)

Amendment. No changes or amendments to the district boundaries shown on the official zoning map shall be made except in compliance and conformity with all procedures set forth in article IV of chapter 78 of this Code, comprehensive master plan, zoning map and text amendments. If, in accordance with these procedures, changes or amendments are made to district boundaries, such changes or amendments shall be made promptly after official adoption of the change or amendment as provided for in this article. The town manager shall be responsible for the physical updating and amendment of the official zoning map.

(c)

Replacement. If the official zoning map becomes damaged, destroyed, lost or difficult to interpret because of the nature or number of changes and additions, the town council may adopt a new official zoning map that shall supersede the prior map. The new official zoning map may correct drafting and clerical errors or omissions in the prior official zoning map, but no such corrections shall have the effect of amending this chapter or any subsequent amendment thereto without a duly noticed public hearing as provided in this article. Unless the prior official zoning map has been lost or totally destroyed, the prior map or any significant parts of the map remaining shall be preserved, together with all available records pertaining to its adoption or amendment.

(d)

Interpretation of district boundaries. The district boundary lines shown on the zoning map are usually along streets, alleys, property lines or extensions. Where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of districts, as shown on the official zoning map, the following rules shall apply:

(1)

Boundaries indicated as approximately following streets, highways or alleys shall be construed to follow the centerline of such street, highway or alley.

(2)

Boundaries indicated as approximately following platted lot lines shall be construed as following such lines.

(3)

Boundaries indicated as approximately following town limits shall be construed as following town limits.

(4)

Boundaries indicated as following railroad lines shall be construed to be the centerline of the right-of-way or, if no centerline is established, the boundary shall be interpreted to be midway between the right-of-way lines.

(5)

Boundaries indicated as following the shoreline of lakes shall be construed to follow such shoreline and in the event of change in the shoreline, shall be construed as moving with the actual shoreline.

(6)

Boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerlines of streams drainageways or other bodies of water shall be construed to follow such centerlines, and, in the event of change in the centerlines of the streams, drainageways or other bodies of water, shall be construed as moving with such centerlines.

(7)

Boundaries indicated as parallel to or extensions of features indicated in subsections (d)(1)—(d)(6) of this section shall be so construed. Distances not specifically indicated on the original zoning map shall be determined from the graphic scale on the map.

(8)

Whenever any street, alley or other public way is vacated by official action of the town council, or whenever street or alley area is franchised for building purposes, the zoning district line adjoining each side of such street, alley or other public way shall be automatically extended to the centerline of such vacated street, alley or way, and all area so involved shall then and henceforth be subject to all regulations of the extended districts.

(9)

Where physical features of the ground are at variance with information shown on the official zoning map, or when there arises a question as to how or whether a parcel of property is zoned, and such question cannot be resolved by the application of subsections (d)(1) through (d)(8) of this section, the property shall be considered as classified IH interim holding district.

(Code 1989, ch. 12, § 3.03)

Sec. 98-233. - Zoning of annexed territory.

All territory hereafter annexed to the town shall be classified as IH interim holding district, until different zoning is established by the town council of the town.

(a)

The IH interim holding district is to be used as a classification for land that is annexed into the town. The town may initiate proceedings on its own motion rezone or reclassify newly annexed territory with a different zoning classification, as appropriate.

(b)

Land may remain in the IH interim holding district under the conditions of this subsection. In such cases, the use of land shall be permanently restricted to those uses prescribed in this section, until such time as the property is determined to be suitable for development and is zoned to a different zoning classification.

(1)

This IH district may be used as a reserve area in which future growth of the town might occur. It is suitable for areas where development is premature because of a lack of adequate utilities, capacity or service, or where the ultimate land use has not been determined.

(2)

This IH district may be used to protect and provide open space buffers around those areas that are unsuitable for development because of physical constraints, such as flooding, that pose potential health, environmental or safety hazards.

(Code 1989, ch. 12, § 3.07(a))

Sec. 98-252. - Permitted uses.

For the purpose of this section, a tract of record or lot previously existing before annexation into the town and designated as IH interim holding district may be developed in accordance with the provisions of division 3 of article III of this chapter, A agricultural district and conservation development, provided that the tract of record or lot upon which the proposed development is to occur is not required to be subdivided or otherwise altered.

(1)

Purpose and definition. The provisions of this section implement the goals and policies of the master plan concerning residential densities in areas zoned SF-E, single-family estate district. The following standards, and all conditions necessary to ensure compliance therewith, shall apply to any conservation developments in any areas zoned SF-E, single-family estate district, and to all uses in that district, when approved pursuant to the conservation development procedures set forth herein. "conservation development" means a residential development project in which dwelling units are clustered on smaller lots than otherwise would be allowed within tracts of land zoned SF-E, single-family estate district, for the purpose of preserving open or natural lands as an integral component of the development. Conserved lands shall be placed in a conservation easement. A "conservation easement" is defined as a voluntary and permanent deed restriction that limits the development and/or subdivision of property for the purposes of protecting conservation values in the land. The easement is a recorded restriction, applies to and binds all subsequent owners, and may be held by either (1) a nonprofit entity or organization that manages open space, such as a land trust or other qualified entity, pursuant to section 170(h) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, or (2) a governmental entity.

(2)

[Minimum requirements.]

Minimum Lot Area Per Dwelling Minimum Project Open Space
15,000 square feet 50 percent of the gross land area
15,000 square feet with an average 20,000 square feet 45 percent of the lot area of gross land area
20,000 square feet 40 percent of the gross land area

 

The minimum lot area shall be exclusive of all rights-of-way or easements for streets and alleys; land dedicated for public use; or open space, floodplain, park land and buffer areas, unless otherwise stated in these regulations.

(3)

Open space standards. This subsection describes standards for dedication of land for and improvement of public and private open space for conservation development projects:

(a)

Preservation of natural features.

1.

All significant natural features, as defined in the open space plan and master plan, shall be preserved and, where necessary, protected by setbacks from development.

2.

Development shall be designed and sited to preserve and protect the 100-year floodplain, consistent with applicable provisions of this chapter.

3.

Significant stands of native trees and any other areas of substantial vegetation shall be preserved and protected from alteration or destruction, unless a mitigation plan is approved in conjunction with the concept or development plan for the project, which proposes replacement of the trees or vegetation to be removed with equivalent vegetation or vegetation which is better suited to existing natural conditions. The establishment of new vegetative communities is encouraged.

4.

Preservation of such areas shall be counted toward fulfillment of open space requirements subject to the following limitations:

a.

Floodplain areas. Adjacent floodplain land may be included as project open space in conservation of developments; however, no credits for open space shall be given for land lying in the floodway.

b.

Other areas. Significant stands of vegetation must be incorporated in areas to be dedicated to common open space, so as to prevent fragmentation, in order to be counted toward project open space.

(b)

Open space dedication. In meeting requirements for open space, the developer must dedicate land or convey open space to be held in a conservation easement by (1) a qualified nonprofit entity or organization that manages open space, such as a land trust, or other qualified entity, pursuant to section 170(h) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and as may be approved and accepted by the town or (2) a governmental entity.

(c)

Open space allocation in phased projects. In a phased conservation development project, all open space shall be conserved in a conservation easement in conjunction with the development of the first phase of the project.

(d)

Open space design and improvements. The design and improvements of open space shall be in accordance with the following standards. These standards may be supplemented by administrative guidelines.

1.

Open space areas in a conservation development shall be linked to existing and planned open space or conserved areas to provide an overall open space system wherever possible.

2.

Where feasible, and where compatible with and depending upon the values and uses of the conserved land, open space areas shall be arranged so as to maximize areas and utilization by residents of the conservation development project.

(4)

Project design.

(a)

It is the intent of these regulations to encourage outstanding project design for conservation development projects in order to implement the policies contained in the town's master plan. The town recognizes that project design is an important and variable element in implementing master plan policies relating to conservation developments and overall community objectives. It is the town's intent to promulgate administrative guidelines to illustrate preferred design methods. It is acknowledged that other design alternatives may be superior for a particular project. The following standards will be used to evaluate project design:

1.

The arrangement of all uses and improvements should reflect the natural capabilities and limitations of the site as well as the characteristics and limitations of adjacent property.

2.

Development must be compatible with the immediate environment of the site and neighborhood relative to existing adjacent residential densities unless otherwise buffered in an acceptable manner; scale, bulk and building height; historical character; and disposition and orientation of buildings on the lot.

3.

Buildings, roadways, open space, and landscaping must be designed and arranged to produce an efficient, functionally organized and cohesive development.

4.

Buildings, roadways, open space and landscaping must be in favorable relationship to the existing natural topography, water bodies and water courses, exposure to sunlight and wind, and view corridors and scenic vistas.

5.

Buildings, roadways, open space and landscaping must be designed and arranged to maximize the opportunity for privacy by the residents of the project and surrounding areas.

6.

Building sites must be located to minimize their impact on view corridors and scenic vistas.

(b)

For any conservation development project submitted to the town for approval, a development agreement shall be entered into between the town and the developer of the conservation development project. The development agreement shall set forth specific development standards and other applicable conditions for the conservation development project; however, no development standard or other applicable condition shall be less restrictive than those contained in this subsection of chapter. Said development agreement shall be subject to town council approval and may be filed in the deed records of Denton County, Texas.

(5)

Alternative proposals and variation from requirements. The performance standards for conservation development projects contained in this subsection are considered to be the minimum standards necessary for approval. It is recognized, however, that project size, location and design may necessitate a different arrangement or distribution of open space or buffers than are envisioned in these regulations, and that different amenities than those specified herein may become valuable options. Consequently, an applicant for a conservation development project may submit an alternative proposal with corresponding variations in the standards applicable to such a development, which alternative shall be evaluated and action taken thereon in accordance with the procedures contained in this chapter; provided, however, that the following limitations apply:

(a)

The alternative proposal and variations requested shall achieve the same basic objectives as the particular standards, which are to be varied.

(b)

Where the proposal seeks to vary project size limitations, the alternative design shall be evaluated in accordance with standards applicable to larger projects.

(6)

Conservation development incentives. Conservation development will be considered for conservation incentives commensurate with the quality and character of the open or natural lands to be placed within a conservation easement or otherwise conserved and the extent to which the conserved land contributes to the preservation of open or natural lands, significant stands of native trees and any other areas of substantial vegetation, and scenic and ecological values. Incentives will be considered on a project-by-project basis and will be approved by the town council only after community input and public hearing, except that expedited development review shall be approved administratively. Such incentives may include but are not limited to: expedited development review, permit fee waivers, reduced street infrastructure requirements, as reflected in the town's thoroughfare plan, reduction in park land dedication requirements of not more than the percentage of land set aside for a conservation easement, and reduction of monetary assessments relative to agricultural rollback taxes. The purpose of this criterion is to protect the open lands, natural landscapes and ecological resources that create and define Flower Mound's unique community character and which are essential to the accomplishments of community character, quality of life and economic development objectives.

(7)

No increase in density. No residential application or project shall be approved that increases residential density beyond the density allowed in the master plan.

Residential uses shall be limited to 25 percent of the overall building square footage in any new planned development in the campus commercial district. The remaining 75 percent of building square footage shall pertain to non-residential uses. For the purposes of this section, a residential use shall include any building area used primarily for the purpose of leasing or selling residential dwelling units within the planned development as well as any building area not open to the general public and intended for the exclusive use of residents of the residential space and their guests, such as a gym or other indoor recreational area.

b.

A phasing plan outlining the percentage mix of residential and non-residential development that will be built in each phase must be submitted with the zoning application, noting the restriction that only the final phase can be comprised of exclusively residential development.

c.

Buildings used for residential development are limited to a maximum of four stories in height to ensure that residential buildings do not dominate the skyline in an area intended primarily for non-residential use.

d.

Central core or "wrapped" parking structures surrounded on two or more sides with residential units, are required for multi-family uses. No more than 20 percent of the required parking for multi-family uses shall be provided as surface parking.

(2)

Parking structures for non-residential uses. Parking structures designated to meet non-residential parking requirements may count toward the percentage of non-residential building square footage, provided they meet the following standards:

a.

Utilize a unified design theme tying the parking structure to other nearby structures within the development.

b.

Incorporate architectural screens or other techniques to mitigate any adverse visual effects of the parking garage to pedestrians and adjacent properties.

c.

Provide space to satisfy at least 80 percent of the required parking of the use(s) identified on the proposed concept plan.

d.

Are greater than two stories.

(3)

Open space. The provision of adequate and appropriate open space areas shall be integral to all planned developments in the campus commercial district incorporating residential uses. To ensure this is provided, open space shall comply with the following standards:

a.

The minimum requirement for open space in these types of projects is five percent of the gross area of the site, which shall be dedicated open space and shall be included in the zoning change/development plan application.

b.

The identified open space can also be used to meet parkland dedication requirements, as outlined in chapter 90. However, if payment of cash in lieu of dedication is selected, the five percent open space requirement would remain, as the open space requirement stands on its own and should not be considered a substitution for, nor a requirement in addition to, the language already noted in chapter 90.

c.

Any open space provided in excess of five percent may be eligible for density bonus provisions as outlined below. Required landscaping, buffers, and detention/retention areas are not counted toward the open space requirement.

(4)

Bonus provisions.

a.

An applicant may apply for a residential density bonus of up to ten percent to equal a maximum of 35 percent of the overall building square footage. In order to be considered for bonus provisions, the applicant shall provide a list and conceptual design of amenities/design elements on the required concept plan, proposed residential and non-residential (if known) uses and/or tenants for identified buildings, and elevations highlighting proposed building designs.

b.

The planning and zoning commission shall make a recommendation to the town council on the requested bonus package. The town council shall make the final decision on the appropriateness of the amenity/design package for the bonus requested, and may grant all, some, or none of the allowable bonus based on the amenity/design package.

(5)

Considerations toward achieving a residential density bonus:

a.

Focus and design based on placemaking that incorporates the following elements:

1.

Use of pedestrian scale design elements including sidewalks/walkways/trails with appropriately scaled shade, planters, and seating along streets and building facades.

2.

Use of pedestrian linkages throughout the development.

3.

Incorporation of public spaces and art.

b.

The quality of open space provided, as determined by the following:

1.

The percent increase in open space over the base requirement.

2.

The extent to which access has been provided to and emphasis has been placed on preservation of existing wooded areas, view sheds, water bodies, topography, and stream corridors in a natural and continuous state.

3.

The extent to which a range of open spaces have been provided to be contiguous with existing open spaces and to invite passive recreation uses from plazas and squares to playgrounds, parks, and environmental preserves.

c.

The percentage of the ground floor building area occupied as nonresidential use only.

d.

Use of parking structures to meet parking requirements, with particular emphasis placed on those that:

1.

Incorporate pedestrian-oriented uses at street level.

2.

Minimize street frontage.

e.

The seamless blending of residential and non-residential spaces, such as restaurants and retail, while incorporating appropriate transitions between uses of varying intensity.

f.

The type, design, and desirability of non-residential uses/tenants and buildings.

g.

Impact of site specific conditions such as grades, vegetation, and automobile and pedestrian access.

Plazas can be wider sidewalks or extensions of sidewalks for the purpose of providing outdoor seating for restaurants and cafes.

Primary or principal building. The primary building on a lot is also known as the principal building and is the largest building on any lot that has more than one building.

Primary entrance. The primary entrance is the main or principal pedestrian entrance of all buildings (except outbuildings). The primary entrance is the entrance designed for access by pedestrians from the sidewalk, or street if a sidewalk is not present. This is the principle principal architectural entrance even though day-to-day residential access may be via a secondary entrance associated with a garage, driveway or other vehicular use area.

Primary street. A primary street is a street that provides the main point(s) of access from an arterial or collector roadway to the mixed use district's interior street network.

Public buildings. Public buildings are buildings used for active government or related functions, including public administration (executive and judicial), courts, libraries, community centers, and public safety functions.

Public realm. The public realm is the area from building facade to building facade. This includes the street, sidewalks and pedestrian amenities, any landscaping strips or medians, parks, common yards, etc.

Public street, type A. Type A public streets are the primary pedestrian-oriented streets and require a higher quality design environment and minimal accommodation of auto-oriented ancillary uses (driveways and parking) with respect to streetscape and building design.

Public street, type B. Type B public streets form the secondary street network providing access to pedestrian oriented streets (type A streets) and may accommodate automobile access to properties and uses.

Regulating plan. A plan for adoption of zoning and a conceptual plan that establishes the location of streets, blocks, lots, component districts, streetscape standards, and other development standards, subject to changes within such plan pursuant to the terms of this chapter.

Residential loft. Residential loft is typically a residential unit designed to commercial standards (with high ceilings, open plans, and large windows) located above street level commercial space.

Retail sales or service. Retail establishments form the final step in the distribution of merchandise. They are organized to sell in small quantities to many customers. Establishments in stores operate as fixed point-of-sale locations, which are designed to attract walk-in customers. Retail establishments often have displays of merchandise and sell to the general public for personal or household consumption, though they may also serve businesses and institutions. Some establishments may further provide after-sales services, such as repair and installation. Included in this category are durable consumer goods sales and service, consumer goods, other grocery, food, specialty food, beverage, dairy, etc, and health and personal services.

Single-family residential, detached dwelling unit. A single-family detached residential unit is a freestanding building on an individual lot or tract of land intended for occupancy by one family.

Single-family residential, attached dwelling unit. A single-family attached residential unit is a building on an individual lot or tract of land intended for occupancy by one family that shares one or more common walls with similar adjacent units, also on individual lots such as townhomes, condominiums or brownstones.

Square. A square is generally a geometrically symmetrical open space of andhalf; to two acres, available for unstructured recreation and civic purposes. A square is spatially defined by streets and buildings, at least on three sides. Its landscape consists of paths, lawns, and trees, all formally arranged.

Snack or nonalcoholic bar. These establishments prepare and serve specialty snacks, such as ice cream, frozen yogurt, cookies, or popcorn, or serve nonalcoholic beverages, such as coffee, juices, or sodas for consumption on or near the premises. These establishments may carry and sell a combination of snack, nonalcoholic beverage, and other related products (e.g., coffee beans, mugs, and coffee makers) but generally promote and sell a unique food or beverage item.

Street tree. A street tree is a tree or group of trees that line the edge of a street or roadway and includes trees inside and outside the street right-of-way.

Streetscape treatments. Streetscape treatments include all improvements in a right-of-way and adjacent to it that create an attractive and safe pedestrian environment. Treatments shall include street trees, street light standards, street furniture, and trash receptacles. Streetscape treatments may also include a range of provisions features such as paving materials, street/pedestrian/wayfinding signs, media boxes, parking meters, utility boxes, seating, public art/water features, bike racks, bollards, information kiosks, etc., and similar features.

Thoroughfare plan. The thoroughfare plan is a component of the town's master plan. The thoroughfare plan, as amended, serves as the community's blueprint for the town's future transportation network based on the future land use allocation and intensity.

Vertical mixed use. Vertical mixed use is a building or structure in which at least one of the upper floors of a commercial building has residential uses (live-work units or lofts) with a mixture of retail or office uses at the other levels of the building or structure, or office uses above ground floor retail uses.

(Ord. No. 62-08, § 2, 10-6-2008)

Sec. 98-900. - General district standards.

(a)

Generally. A mixed use zoning district shall consist of a minimum of two of the following three distinct components designated in the ordinance creating the district: a mixed use core, mixed use neighborhood, and mixed use transition. Land uses in the district shall be established based upon the overall character and design of the district. All MU's shall contain appropriately designed and scaled open spaces to preserve existing wooded areas, stream corridors and views, and invite passive recreational activities. All MU's shall contain appropriate transitions to adjacent land uses.

(b)

Mixed use core area. The mixed use core area shall be the primary location of the highest intensity commercial uses including retail uses and offices for business, professional and technical uses. Residential uses in the mixed use core area shall be limited to upper floors of any building and as specified under [section 98-901], table 1, Schedule of Uses.

(c)

Mixed use neighborhood. The mixed use neighborhood is a component area of the MU that is predominantly residential in nature. Limited retail and civic uses may be located at key points within the neighborhood. The location of the mixed use neighborhood shall be determined based upon the overall character and design of the proposed district and the following criteria:

(1)

The mixed use neighborhood component, if incorporated into the MU, is to be located between the mixed use core and any mixed use transitions;

(2)

The mixed use neighborhood shall be well integrated with proposed open space and other civic uses to create a sense of place;

(3)

The mixed use neighborhood shall also be integrated with proposed mixed use core and mixed use transitions in a manner that provides internal automobile and pedestrian access; and

(4)

Uses in the mixed use neighborhood shall be to the density and scale that is appropriate based on the context and character of the proposed district.

(d)

Mixed use transition. The mixed use transition component is the area that forms the transition between the mixed use core or mixed use neighborhood to adjoining conditions. Based on site-specific adjacency conditions, a mixed use transition zone may be one or more of the following:

(1)

Neighborhood transition zone. The neighborhood transition zone shall include residential uses that are of compatible scale and density to the immediately adjacent existing neighborhoods.

(2)

Major roadway transition zone. A major roadway corridor is either an arterial roadway or state highway. This transition area shall be the only appropriate location for more automobile- oriented commercial uses due to the adjacency and access along the roadway while transitioning to a pedestrian-oriented development towards the interior of the site. A major roadway transition may include transitions from a rail road right-of way or corridor.

(3)

Environmental transition zone. The environmental feature may be a creek, water body, significant grades, or tree stands. In particular, the environmental transition zone shall consider appropriate buffers and edge conditions to the specific environmental resource in order to maximize its intrinsic value to the overall mixed use development as a focal point.

(e)

Open space. The open space component shall be integrated into the overall design of the mixed use zoning district.

(1)

The type, scale, location, and design of the open space component shall depend on the context and location of the other components of the MU.

(2)

Squares, parks, greens, and environmental preserves are encouraged in all components. Plazas may serve as open spaces and shall only be appropriate in the mixed use core.

(Ord. No. 62-08, § 2, 10-6-2008)

Sec. 98-901. - Schedule of uses.

(a)

Uses within the MU shall be in accordance with the following schedule of uses.

Sec. 98-902. - Development standards.

(a)

Standards in the MU are intended to facilitate the development of unique and pedestrian-friendly environments. To this end, design and development standards are intended to be tailored to create such an environment. In order to provide flexibility in use with prescription of the building form, all applicable development standards for each development project in the MU, including listing any applicable sections of Subpart B, Land Development Regulations that the particular development project may be exempt from, shall be established via the ordinance rezoning the property. If there are any conflicts between standards in table 3 below and any other standards in Subpart B, Land Development Regulations, then the standards in table 3 below shall prevail.

(b)

Accessory uses—Sec. 98-1032. Accessory buildings shall apply unless other standards are proposed by the applicant and approved by town council.

(c)

The following standards shall apply to development in the mixed use zoning district. Most standards have a numerical range and few have a specific numerical value. Due to the inapplicability of one development standard across all mixed use districts and to encourage a diversity of development proposals, the developer shall propose the standards indicated as "flexible" or "permitted/flexible" on the following table for the proposed development at the time of concept plan application submittal (see [subsection 98-904(b)(2)]) for concept plan submittal requirements in the MU district).
